October 2019 is right around the time my kids became obsessed with Toy Story 4, probably because we had just got disney plus and thats allllll we watched for days on end, so it seemed only natural to make a Toy Story 4 themed family costume when we were told at the last minute Quinn (my oldest) needed a costume for her cheerleading practice.
impossible to get a family picture with everyone looking
Like I said above, this was a last minute DIY for my daughter’s sports practice. For Mr. & Mrs. Potatohead I used old amazon boxes (again, lol! I swear they come in handy) and used construction paper we had on hand to make the faces. I had to google their pictures to get a good idea of what they actually looked like in the movies. I glued some ribbon on the top and voila! done!
For Jessie: we already had her awesome cowgirl hat as a dressup accessory which made pulling that costume together pretty easy. I used sharpie marker to draw cow print on white frabic and glued the fabric onto an old pair of jeans right at the knee to make them look like chaps. For her yellow bib, I cut a neckhole out of a sqaure peice of fabric and draped it over her shoulders, then colored the red swirl pattern on in red sharpie. The white shirt, jeans, and boots are all just clothing items we already owned.
Bo: I thought this costume was gonna be a little tougher but luckily my daughter had a romper from Easter that worked great for her bloomers and corset; I just glued ribbon to the top in a criss cross pattern to make it look like a corset. For her cape we had an old mismtached pink polka dot pillow case laying around so I hot glued that to the inside of a dark blue peice of fabric, attached a string at the top to make it a cape and glued a pink flower. I glued bright pink ribbon to a headband and added a bow to the side. Her little sheep (Billy, Goat, and Gruff) are actually an old pair of sheep slippers that I sewed together.
The Alien: My little man had a bright blue track suit (given to him) and it was sooo close to not fitting at all anymore that I was fine with gluing some fabric/stickers/decals/etc on it. I used lime green foam board bought at a craft store to make his alien eyes and antenna. Easy peasy. I googled the details of the alien and recreated the “pizza planet” logo on his chest.
For making this whole family cosutme in about 2 hours I think it came out pretty great!!
